Flaunting the beauty of Kerala's gold

Layering is an art. Especially jewelry! And it gets even more special when it is bridal jewelry. Our fabulous brides from Kerala love their yellow gold jewelry and are pros at it. From Mulla Motta mala to elakkathali, the Malayali brides layer every piece to perfection.  

It looks gorgeous and one can definitely pick a tip or two from them - even if you're not layering as many pieces as them.

Each piece has a special name and these brides love to flaunt it. We have shared some pictures that captivated us, whether it be the artful arrangement of stacked pieces or a single jewelry item.

We love statement chokers so much! Looks stunning and can be easily worn again later. These brides matched the rani haar to the choker and made the overall look stand out with the sheer gorgeousness.

This bride here wore our favorite Kaashu mala or the coin necklace, both the long and the short variants. Another trend that is catching on fast and is very doable is the dual choker one. We give it a thumbs up!

Brides who served major minimalism goals! While the first one opted for dainty, contrasting jewels with her silver kanjeevaram, the latter created a look that exuded utmost simplicity.

While most Kerala brides are partial to yellow gold, this bride took it up a notch with her beautiful diamond jewelry.

If you are a modern bride and would not want much jewelry or much yellow gold, then choose the route of these brides. We love how these two brides have let this play out. With the off-white of their Set sarees, it looks brilliant
